Status: offline 		Being a total newbie to fishing Oil creek, what flies would you recommend?  From what I have read, it seems like there is a pretty good tan caddis hatch.  As such, would you recommend tan caddis pupae, nymphs, soft hackles, dries, all of the above....????  I would like to get a jump and start tying a few flies.  Of course, I could bring a nice selection of glo bugs, sucker spawn, tube flies, streamers, and nymphs....  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I never fish 7x... dont even carry it anymore.

Ill have all the flies I always carry, ill figure out something they want. Dries only appeal to me when the fish are rising in masses.

Status: offline 		Once you go across bridge at start of delayed harvest area in petrolium center keep going straight to end of parkintg lot we usualy use last pravilan. If you arive before eating time( and you should for some fishing time)just park and go fish. I know most of the regulars and usualy start rounding everyone up for eats .My girlfriend has done alot of the cooking these past few years and is a great help.. Just make sure you bring a desire to chow down and catch fish.

Egg, put me down for brownies again.
